"I want God too!"

"It
is one thing to love God and another thing actually

to
feel the joy of His presence."
- Servant of God Elisabeth Leseur

"When I was still a child" - she testified - "and before I was old enough
to receive Jesus in Communion, I used to rush to the front door to greet my
mother when she returned from Mass. There I stood on tiptoe to reach up to her and cried,'I want God too!'

My mother would bend down and softly breathe on
my lips; I immediately left her, and placing my hands across my chest, full of
joy and faith, jumping for joy I would keep repeating: 'I have received God too!
I have received God too!' "
